American life is being made steeply harder by our profoundly mentally ill tyrant of a president.

Paying more for things got Biden booted from office.

Let's see if our people have courage enough to return Trump the favor.

Look at the picture of Trump above:

The man even looks crazy.

What was going through his head when that picture was taken?

"Me, me. me, me. me..."

Major chains are still working from inventory they imported before the tariffs took hold. imo, that likely won't last much longer, maybe a month or possibly two.

Then there are Pres Trump's multiple TACOs, which have delayed the imposition of widespread tariffs to August 1st, then TACO again to August 7.

Some companies (automakers, for example) have been absorbing the tariffs, letting them affect their operating margins. But will they eventually start passing the tariffs on to consumers to recover those operating margins for their stockholders?

"While tariffs have yet to significantly shift the dial on inflation"prompting individuals like Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent to label them the "dog that didn't bark""analysts are widely expecting the hikes to ultimately be paid for by the U.S.

So far the sharpest end of the tariff regime has yet to be felt."

"While they haven't the are gonna." The daily cry, actually the daily wish from the left.

Buy American! Dems need to break free from buying cheap Chinese crap.

Trump mocks Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon: 'Maybe, he ought to just focus on being a DJ'
www.businessinsider.com

... Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon is probably wondering how he got here.

President Donald Trump on Tuesday criticized the investment bank for not giving his trade policy enough "credit." It's not immediately clear what sparked Trump's ire, but the president laid into Solomon directly, even calling out the longtime CEO's DJing hobby. ...

As the article pointed out the tariffs haven't raised prices yet but the left keeps putting out headlines that they will. They want prices to go up so they can say I told you so.

Peng noted that around 36% of the 2025 tariff costs were passed on to consumer prices after three months of implementation and around 67% were passed on after four months.

The orange rapist did that.

Of course the Trump Tax is hitting the American public.

It's just basic economics. But Trump has made it clear: Either he stubbornly refuses to accept basic economics, or he's just too goddamn dumb to grasp its simplest principles. Personally, I think it's a mixture of both. Remember, this mook has gone bankrupt six times. Including in the gambling den business.

Well, I'm paying more for ordinary groceries.

I appreciate the MAGA effort to persuade me that I'm mistaken.

But, mysteriously, it hasn't led to more money in my pocket.

Ten years from never.

Why in the world would manufacturing come back to America when it will always be cheaper to do it elsewhere.

Want manufacturing to come back?

You'll have to socialize it.

Capitalism doesn't care if you can't pay for imports.

That's why homelessness is more and more becoming illegal.

At least in prison there's some way to monetize them.

Make America A Fascist Nation is moving full speed ahead.
